Historic Warner Cascade Continues Studio Anniversary

On February, 1907, the four Warner brothers – Harry, Albert, Sam, and Jack – opened their first cinema in New Castle, Pennsylvania. They called it the Cascade Picture Palace. On April 4, 1923, the brothers officially celebrated their incorporation of the Warner Brothers Studio.

And 100 years later, Lorre fans in the New Castle, Pennsylvania, area can enjoy more of Peter’s classic movies in the historic Cascade – now known as the Warner Cascade Theatre Museum – when the cinema continues its celebration of the Warner Bros studio’s 100th anniversary.

The celebration continues throughout the months of July, August, and September, until Thursday, September 28, 2023. The full schedule is available on the Visit Lawrence County Pennsylvania website.

Each Thursday at 12 noon, a free Warner Bros classic film will be shown in the Cascade Theatre.

Lorre films scheduled are ~

• Thursday, July 20 – Arsenic and Old Lace (1944)
• Thursday, August 10 – The Mask of Dimitrios (1944)
• Thursday, September 28 – Casablanca (1942) – 9 am

Admission is free for everyone, but seating is limited.

Co-sponsoring the series are the New Castle Public Library and the Lawrence County Historical Society.

The Warner Cascade Theatre is located at 11 South Mill Street in downtown New Castle, Pennsylvania.

Parking is available in the lot located at the corner of Mill Street and Market Street in New Castle.
